After School Suspension

November 21, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I received this suspender skirt from OASAP and instantly fell in love. The caging under the bust gives it an especially edgy twist while the circle skirt and short length keep it fun and flirty. It’s a simple, easy way to add visual interest to an average top. Sorry to make another school-themed post but…Read More

Bite Me

October 27, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

As a result of Halloween fast approaching and my friends bullying me into watching Buffy I’ve had a vampire inspired shoot on the brain lately. I didn’t want to go all out (fangs aren’t so flattering) but I took inspiration from the dark and seductive vibe that vampires are always associated with. And for the…Read More

A Performance Piece

August 22, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

These leggings came into my wardrobe surrounded by debate. When I first found them my co-workers insisted that only Beyonce could justify wearing something so out of control, and even then only on stage. Naturally I took this as a challenge and promptly purchased them. I can’t even tell you the amount of stares I got…Read More

by Celina[zilla_likes]

I can’t get enough of the knee high gladiator trend (see here, and here). There’s something so cool about the edgy, warrior-woman vibe these shoes give to an outfit. I paired them with a simple black dress to keep the shoes as a focal point. Major props to my photo intern, Jenni Heller, for snapping…Read More

by Celina[zilla_likes]

I’m back from my vacation, burned in all the usual places, and with quite a few books knocked off my summer reading list. Here are a few snapshots from my trip. From left to right: 1) Starting my first day at the beach off with a cutout one piece. 2) Can’t have a trip to Cape Cod without a…Read More

Pretty Young Thing

June 23, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

This outfit feels so classic to me, with the black and white color scheme and the midi hem length. I’ve updated it with a crop top and tulle skirt but there’s something ever elegant about this combination. Shirt: TJ Maxx, Skirt: Forever21 (similar here), Shoes: Tahari, Belt: Thrifted, Rings: Assorted Photos by Jenni Heller.  …Read More
